Why is Parker Hadley the right choice to negotiate for your home?
The hunt is exhilarating, but what happens when you find “the one”? The transition from searching to securing your dream property can be daunting.
Finding the right property is fun, but the buying process? Not so much. Negotiating the best price, understanding the true value, and navigating the purchasing process can be overwhelming.
Here's why choosing us is a great decision:
Who Is This For?
If you’re like many people, scrolling through property listings and imagining your future home is a favourite pastime. There’s something thrilling about finding that perfect house or investment opportunity online.
And maybe your weekends spent visiting open houses and inspecting properties are weekends well spent. There’s nothing quite like the excitement of stepping into a home that could potentially be yours.
This is for anyone who wants to enjoy the exciting parts of property hunting but wants to leave the stressful negotiations to a professional.
Why It Matters:
Negotiating the best price, understanding the true value, and navigating the purchasing process can be overwhelming.
Guide prices can be deceptive, and knowing the true value of a property is crucial. Misleading prices can lead to overpaying or losing out on a great deal.
Pre-auction offers can be a strategic way to secure a property, but the process is often unclear and complex. Making the right offer at the right time is key to pre-auction success.
Negotiation can be the most stressful part of buying a property. If you love everything about the property search except for the negotiation, we can help.

Top 8 FAQ’s About Negotiating Your New Home
- How can we determine the right offer price for a property?
Research is key. Look at comparable sales in the area, known as “comps”, to understand the market value. Online real estate portals, recent sales data, and consultation with local real estate agents can provide a good benchmark. Additionally, consider the property’s condition, location, and any unique features that may affect its value.
- What strategies can we use to negotiate a lower price?
Start by making a reasonable but lower initial offer to leave room for negotiation. Highlight any issues or needed repairs to justify your offer. Be prepared to walk away if the seller isn’t willing to negotiate, showing you’re serious about your budget. Lastly, consider using a buyer’s agent who can leverage their negotiation expertise on your behalf.
- Is it better to make an offer quickly or wait?
Timing depends on the market conditions. In a hot market, making an offer quickly can be advantageous to beat other buyers. However, in a slower market, you might have more time to negotiate and ensure you’re making a well-considered offer. Stay informed about current market trends and act accordingly.
- What contingencies should we include in my offer?
Common contingencies include a finance clause, subject to obtaining suitable financing, and a building and pest inspection clause to ensure there are no major defects. You may also consider including a clause subject to the sale of your existing property if applicable. These contingencies protect you from unforeseen issues that could affect the purchase.
- How do we handle multiple offer situations?
If you’re in a multiple offer scenario, put your best offer forward while staying within your budget. Consider offering favourable terms to the seller, such as a flexible settlement date or a larger deposit. If you’re highly interested, you could include an escalation clause, stating you’ll increase your offer if other bids are higher, up to a certain limit.
- Should we get a pre-approval before making an offer?
Yes, having a pre-approval demonstrates to sellers that you are a serious buyer with the financial backing to proceed with the purchase. It can strengthen your negotiating position and may even make your offer more attractive compared to others without pre-approval.
- What should we do if the seller counters my offer?
Carefully review the counteroffer and determine if it meets your budget and needs. You can either accept the counteroffer, reject it, or make another counteroffer. Consider any additional terms or conditions proposed by the seller and decide if they are acceptable. Communication with your real estate agent can help you navigate this process effectively.
- How can we ensure my offer stands out to the seller?
Besides a competitive price, consider writing a personal letter to the seller explaining why you love the property and how you envision living there. Being flexible with the settlement date, offering a larger deposit, or accommodating any specific seller requests can also make your offer more appealing. Showing earnestness and a personal connection can sometimes tip the scales in your favour.
